Syndicate, a collaborative project celebrating unionized workers in San Francisco performance and art spaces has been included as part of the GroundScores component of Bay Area Now 5, showing at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts from 7/19/08-10/13/08. The walking tour features street stencils of historic photographs in front of theatres and museums both downtown and at civic center. Some of the stencils are also shown in the gallery exhibition, which also includes a video by Jessica Tully (video/stencils/performance artist) along with text by Kim and photography by Tom Griscom & Wendy Crittenden.

There will be a guided tour with Kim, Jessica, Catherine Powell (from the SFSU Labor Archives, another collaborator) and other guests from noon to 2:30 on Sat, 10/4. Get tickets for the tour on YBCA's web site. Kim, Tom & Wendy will be presenting at SFSU on this topic on the evening of 10/13.
